Summary | 0000247: Reloadsurface functionality | ||||
Description | Related to 0000209, about flush and reload shaders. When using flush and reload shaders, the benefit seems to be mainly if you are working on the material itself. Very useful. However, it doesn't cover the other side of the task - if you are working on the textures themselves and wish to reload them. In DoomEd, reloadsurface will do this. In DR, this type of behavior can currently be tricked into happening by at least one method: 1. open the material file 2. disable the texture you wish to modify in the material file 3. flush and reload shaders - your material will now show an error 4. make your texture edits 5. edit the material file to once again include the texture 6. flush and reload shaders again - this time, you get the new version of the texture So, it seems like the ability to reload a texture IS in the editor, maybe it's just not exposed to the user explicitly (or I haven't found it yet...) Could we have a partner button to 'flush and reload shaders' of 'reload surfaces'? If we get really ambitious, maybe it could even limit the reload to only the currently selected texture(s) (so you don't have to reload everything in a test map over and over again when all you needed was one surface refreshed). I just discovered this in DoomEd tonight (maybe everyone else already knew about it) but it's very useful for WIP texture editing. | ||||
